Personal observation reveals the fact that Wellington has at last commenced work on tne long-talked-of city well, and ere long the people of Wellington will be drinking cold pure water, which is very essential to the health of the city.

Bell has started his plow. Mrs. Hill and C. J. Neal were in Wichita Monday.

The series of religious meetings which have been conducted for the past two weeks at the Methodist church here, closed Sunday night. No accessions to the church we believe. In our last notes we were mistaken when we stated that the Peck "joint" had closed. The jointest only left while the sheriff was In town so It seems. Possibly he got a tip that tha sheriff was coming.

We see in the notes of the County Commissioners meeting that the county printing was given to a Republican newspaper. Not-with-standlng a Democratic paper offered to do the county printing for 15 per cent less the Republican paper got the job for the work; it is however, due Hon. L. Barner to state that he was not a party to this graft. Oura 13 said to be a goverment by the people, though is it? A majority of 5 members of the silk-gowned Su erne court of the United States can and does overrule theiaws made by our senators and congressman and endorsed by our president; this is too much power to rest in the hands of five men, especially In view of the fact that aggregation of all wisdom and justice has many times reversed its own fiats.
